Master Ebon,
I do hope this reaches you, the child assured me he could get up to the Stand. I find myself stranded in lower..I set off an adventure with Egon and two elven lasses, but they simply would not slow down, and lost me near the Canal gate. I do not know thier fate, but I somehow managed to make my way to the tenious Sancturary of the 'Crone. It turns out, folks are starved for wands down here, of which I now can make. So here I shall remain, until you see fit to send some of your guard to fetch me. I certainly cannot make the trip up alone. I will try to earn my keep makeing wands for these wretched souls, and hopefully will see your mercantile demeanor sometime soon.
Best Regards,
Jonathan
